| #11 If the continuous dismal economy has not sparked Obama to approve the keystone pipeline adding the Ukraine situation will not change that decision. Obama is beholden to Buffet and Buffet has been making big money railroading oil around the country. |

| #8 The Obama Regime will give lip service in support but in the back room they will do everything they can to support tyranny. |

| #5 Easiest way to thumb our nose at the bear is fuel exports. Maybe even build a pipeline or something eh? nudge nudge, wink wink. Never gonna happen. It would mean Obama throwing a goodly chunk of his base under the bus. No way, Jose. Although the resulting uproar would distract from the IRS scandal which seems to be ramping up. |

| #4 I agree 3dc. Why continue to feed a rabid dog? Use Vlads own econ-tactics right back at the sob. He'll understand it. |

| #3 My idea of a good initial response to the Crimea thing. Russia gets great PR launching and returning everybody to the Space Station. I good first response would be to tell Sen Shelby to go to hell by voting to fully fund the 3 commercial space ships for test launches in 2015 and service by mid 2016. It would remove most funding and tons of prestige from the Russian space effort. If you put some $ up front SpaceX could do an unmanned test launch this year (run one of the commercial rocket stacks with a test article for the ship) Also the Atlas rockets use motors from Russia. They are strongly backed by Shelby because of assembly in his state. SpaceX rockets are all US made. Delta is mostly US. Shelby insists all mil launches on mainly Atlas rockets. After Crimea some of you might not like me saying so but one could argue using Russian made engines to launch mil payload is traitorous. |

| #2 Yes, certainly would not harm the trade balance, and putting the EPA back in their box would be most helpful secondary. Oil, LNG, coal, they all need it over there. |

| #1 BTW, it couldn't hurt the American balance of trade figure either. |
